Quiet Angels (2022) ER TK-174

Der Hamburger Hafen erscheint manchmal wie ein mystischer Ort wenn die Morgendämmerung einsetzt und der tagsüber so betriebsame Ort wie ein stiller Riese langsam aus seinem Schlaf erwacht. Wenn Nebelschwaden die Hafenkräne zu verhüllen scheinen und diese Ihre Hälse wie Giraffen in den Himmel recken, dann ist es November in Hamburg

The Port of Hamburg sometimes seems like a mystical place when the dawn begins and the place, so busy during daytime slowly wakes up from its sleep like a quiet giant . When clouds of fog seem to cover the port cranes and they stretch their necks into the sky like giraffes then it is November in Hamburg.

November in Hamburg

Dedicated to all those who do ridiculous idiotic dangerous things in order to go viral in the internet.

*** Going Viral ***

McLuhan's vision of a global village has now become reality.
I've got ideas, but, with so many talking, they are now really hard to sell.
Although today, with so many listening, it's a wonderful time to tell.

Wake up my love!
Let's praise this morning to the world, and let's go viral!
Let's post our unquenched thirst for knowledge!
Let's tap the limits of what is possible!
I've got the perfect research area:
Let's try to ignite our noisy flatulences!
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, ignition...

Oh! Davy lamps that lighten our dark coal mines,
why didn't we take your sound advice?
So now we're staying at the hospital emergencies,
stuttering embarrassing explanations.
It was just another tragedy of science:
The slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact.

But all is well, my love.
We did went viral!...

Going Viral (sang over Sounds M "Flashback" track)

Found this on the proverbial cutting room floor when digging through files for the remaster project.

It’s a bit rough round the edges but I thought I’d throw it out there. 

The mission audio is Apollo control reading a selection of news headlines to the crew whilst they are on the outward leg of the journey. A bit of banality during an historic event.

"What Did You Expect?" (Fusion)

Let The Good Fight Begin
Lyrics & Music: Brian James McDonald (ASCAP)

Hold on tight to the pain within, it’s all right, just let the fight begin 

When it begins, there’s no stopping you 
When it’s happening, there’s no way you lose
And when it’s over, I just count my bruisin’, 
I get back up again, I stand back up again

Hold on tight to the pain within, it’s all right, just let the fight begin
She saw the light just like she saw God
Here in jest, you fly, just let the fight begin

And when it’s over, I just count my bruises and I get back up again. I stand back up again.

So let the fight begin, yeah, only then I can begin again 
We can’t really step away - another hell

So here it is — my final plea of need
in a world where I long to be, to be free.
With the weight of silence, I break the chains, calling out the fury — a pouring rain.

Hold on tight, to the stars we sail,
It’s all right, let the music flail 
She saw the light just like she saw God
Here in jest, you fly, can we just find a life?
She saw the light just like she saw God
Here in jest you fly,
Can we just find a life?
